Hello. Thank you for your question. A fixative isn&rsquo;t required when using the Prismacolor Premier&reg; Colorless Blender Pencil, but many artists choose to apply a workable or final fixative to help protect their finished piece from smudging, wax bloom, or surface abrasion. This is a personal preference and depends on how the artwork will be displayed or handled. For long‑term display, framing behind glass or acrylic is recommended. It helps shield the artwork from dust, humidity, and UV exposure, all of which can affect colored pencil pieces over time. Just be sure to use a mat or spacers so the surface of the artwork doesn&rsquo;t touch the glazing. If you prefer to display the piece without glass, a high‑quality final fixative can offer some protection, but it won&rsquo;t be as durable as framing behind glass or acrylic. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Prismacolor&reg; Consumer Care
